Nissan Plans Full Line of Self-Driving Cars in the Next Decade

Nissan Motor Co. said it plans to offer self-driving technology “across the model range within two vehicle generations.” With mainstream new-car models lasting about six years, Nissan could have a full line of autonomous vehicles by 2025.

The timeline makes sense following Nissan’s announcement in August that it would roll out a number of self-driving models by 2020.

The car maker got a boost when its Autonomous Drive system won the grand prize in the Innovation Awards of Ceatec, or the Combined Exhibition of Advanced Technologies, a trade show in Japan often regarded as the equivalent of the U.S. Consumer Electronics Show.
